No, don't know him but very entertaining site, though my thinking is quite different. I love cornets for the way they look, all the different concepts. And they are easy to handle. But I will always prefer the sound and the character of the trumpet. The cornet on the long run is too weak for me.
But, nice reading indeed. |

Like delano, I like the cornet and play my Conn Victor 5A occasionally, but the trumpet, with its stylistic beauty and rich sound, is and always has been my main love.
